Sweet Potatoes dish

Ingredients

4 medium sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 garlic clove, finely grated on a microplane
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup nonfat Greek-style yogurt
1 scallion, white and green parts chopped

      Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. 
  2. Make a series of 1/8-inch slices along each potato, slicing 2/3 of the way through. 
  3. Stir together the butter, oil, thyme, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the potatoes all over with the mixture, getting in between the slices.
